                                       A Surprising Message
A leopard was running toward them. As soon as he reached them he started saying that his name was Key and that he needed to talk to their  parents. "Sounds suspicious!" Sandy said glaring at Key. "Please!" Key begged. "Fine!" Fritz growled as he lead Key to their den. "Spots! I need to tell you and Claws something important!" Key said quickly to Spots. "Important? I'd say only my family is important!" Spots said firmly. "But I found out that...big change is coming. Things that you don't expect is going to happen!" Keys said twitching his tail back and forth. "Thats junk!" Claws answered before Spots. "Give him a chance!" Grassy's squeaky voice encouraged. The adult's faces went blank, Grassy never spoke up without Sandy by her side! "Grass-!" Spots managed to say before Grassy went on. "Give him a chance! You always give me and my sister and brothers chances! Why not him? Hes no different!!!" Grassy said, her voice getting louder as she spoke. Key smiled. "Some girl you got there Spots." He commented. Spots started to get scared, she never heard her daughter speak with so much meaning in her voice before.
The cubs grabbed their sister by the scruff on the back of her neck as they tried to drag her away from the surprised faces of the adults. "You did good without me!" Sandy whispered to her sister, Grassy. Grassy was respected by her littermates, even Rocky for that speech. Even Key didn't think she was such a pipsqueak anymore. The leopard soon left. The sun was starting to set. Purple, pink and blue started to fill the sky. They heard the coyotes howling in the distance. "Go eat then go STRAIGHT to sleep!" Spots told them in an affectionate way. Soon they were all sleeping.
